I need to learn more about the Spike 2 Format as there are simply too many mods and upgrades that I have never seen. I also want to keep the game at work for customers to play.

I'm currently working on my personal CV and Embryon. Those are going to be done this year.

I need to get my CV back together

With new sterns, they are so different to set up, the latch for the lockdown bar is annoying
What you can do though is turn down the brightness of the LEDs in the backglass while playing, no more glare!!

I'm currently preparing the CV cabinet and Tim is going to restore the playfield. I've wanted this game done for so long, so it is a priority for me.

Jaws - I've never seen a Spike 2 game "in the flesh" - so I can't wait to unbox this game. Pinballlife have just released a white metal trim kit for the Premium -which I'll definitely buy.

The technical stuff will be interesting.

I've got a Jaws Premium due in 2 weeks. Already have a Pinsound Sonata Speaker upgrade, Pinblaster and Pinvision put aside. Not to mention Tilt Graphics Gameblades and custom Shooter Rod.

By the endo of the year, I'm hoping to finish my Banzai Run, and at least my Haunted House and Spirit.

What I'm really looking forward to is finishing the remaining APR customer games and then concentrating on the many games I need to restore and move on. Hopefully it will be a case of having multiple games ready to sell in the showroom.

Me, I am wanting to improve my soldering skills. Too many projects being held up due to needing a simple circuit board repair.

Finish my first playfield swap

Hopefully move to a new house. dedicated games room and workshop

End of the year is comming, time for an update.
Over the last few months I've been collecting all bits of info for the Williams System-3 thru System-7 games.
Looking for which board is used in which game.
The difference is the used boards, used fuses, ect....
This resulted in an additional 33 Tech Charts to be added to the Tech Chart section.
A few were allready there, but got updated in the process.
The Tech Charts can also be found in the Williams section along with the score and instruction cards.
Carny_Priest has also send me a few updated files, thanks for that.
A few cards are added to Bally Loop the Loop.
French cards are added to Gottlieb Hollywood Heat.
On request I've created a file for the Midway Target Gallery batting game.
Playmatic Big Town and UFO-X got added.
So more minor changes have been made to several other files.

I hope you all like the Tech Charts.
Right now the files add up to 291 Tech Chart files.
I will add the switch matrix and lamp matrix info to the PinWiki pages and maybe some other information too.
Next will be more Tech Charts for the Gottlieb games.
Have a good Happy New Year and be safe.

Enjoy and have fun,
Peter

Unfortunately you really don't know your insurer until you make a claim. That said, I  insured mine with Shannons Insurance who included off site cover which was useful for me as the games are spread around a couple of places.

Well that’s good to know I’m also with Shannon’s for everything but like you say until I make a claim I can only guess they are ok
